Dogfish Head World Wide Stout | 2016

Just when you thought it was safe to give your liver a break after the holiday’s, a darkness has descended upon us… Dogfish Head World Wide Stout!  Back in stock after years of absence… claim yours whilst able!

From dogfish.com:

World Wide Stout – Dark, rich, roasty & brewed with a ridiculous amount of barley

  • ABV:  15 – 20
  • IBU:  70
  • Release:  November
  • Original Release Date:  1999
  • Style:  Stout

Yes, this is the beer you’ve heard so much about!

Brewed with a ridiculous amount of barley, World Wide Stout is dark, roasty and complex. This Ageable Ale clocks in at 15-20% ABV and has a depth more in line with a fine port than with a can of cheap, mass-marketed beer.

World Wide debuted in the winter of 1999, and the staying power of this brew is undeniable. Like Fort and 120 Minute IPA, World Wide Stout only gets better with age (more on aging beers here). After some time in your beer cellar, the heat of the booze fades into the background and the port notes and roastiness take over.

World Wide goes great with (or as!) dessert. Share one with someone you love.
